“We ready to go?” Avery questioned with a smile as she walked out of Sky's room hours later. She wore a red plaid shirt that hugged her in all the right places, dark wash cowgirls jeans and boots.
Rocky and Tony sat in the living room, playing some video game. They had a bowl of chips between them, both laughing as they talked trash to each other.
“One more round babe.” Rocky said, pounding on the controller. Avery smiled and walked into her grandmother's room where she was watching her novelas, Cupcake at her side.
“I see Cupcake made a new friend.” She noted, laying on the bed next to her favorite woman.
“Feel free to leave him here anytime.” Grandma Rosie smirked, running her hand down Cupcake's spine. “I thought you guys were leaving.”
“The boys wanted to finish up a video game.” Avery explained with a smile. “I'm glad Tony and Rocky are getting along.” Grandma Rosie held her granddaughter's hand and smiled.
Tony popped his head into the room. “Sunny, you ready to go?” Avery nodded her head, gave her grandma a kiss goodbye and walked out of the house with the rest of the gang, all smiling and laughing.
~~~
The Tree House Bright neon lights greeted Rocky, Sky, Tony, and Avery as they walked into the building. They were instantly smashed together because the club was so packed.
“I take it these guys are pretty popular.” Rocky muttered as he and Avery made their way to the bar area, Tony and Sky not to far behind them.
“They are amazing!” Sky exclaimed.
“She only wanted to come because she has a crush on Dougie.” Avery playfully stuck out her tongue to her cousin. Sky smacked the back of Avery's head. “What? It's true!” She shouted out.
“What do you want to drink?” The bartender questioned as they walked up to her.
“I'll take a coke.” Rocky replied, pulling out his wallet, but Avery stopped him.
“Hey Carly, just start a tap for me.” She smiled. “Oh, I'll take a coke too.”
“Sunny! What are you doing here?!” The bartender beamed, leaning over the counter, giving her old friend a hug.
“Just came to visit for a few days.” She explained, then rested her arm on the man beside her. “And this is Rocky, my boyfriend.”
After a few minutes of talking, they excused themselves to go find a place to watch the concert. Rocky wrapped his arm around Avery's waist, pulling her close, a smile on his face.
“Oh my gosh. It's Jack!” A random girl squealed a few feet in front of them. Avery inwardly groaned.
“Why, what do we have here?” A medium hight guy came up to the group, his voice full of sarcasm.
“What do you want Jack?” Avery rolled her eyes.
He smiled. “I just wanted to say hello to an old friend.” Jack tried to go in for a hug, but was quickly denied. “Oh, what baby, you didn't miss me?” He dramatically slapped his hand over his heart. “That hurts babe.”
“I think you need to go dude.” Rocky said, standing in front of his girlfriend. “It's clear that Avery doesn't want you here.”
Avery knew her boyfriend was annoyed, he only called her Avery when he is.
“Who are you?” Jack demanded to know, getting up in Rocky's face. Which was very effective since Rocky had at least half a foot on him.
“Her boyfriend Rocky.” Tony said standing next to him, his arms crossed over his chest.
“Whatever Jessie.” Jack said, totally ignoring Tony.
Rocky looked at Jack like he was crazy. “My name is Rocky.” Dragging out the y. His brown eyes where filled with annoyance.
“Jack, we're ready to go on.” A taller guy came up to the group and Sky quickly started to fix her long black hair. He looked to Avery and smiled. “Sunny!”
“Dougie!”Avery smiled, coming from out behind Rocky, giving the tall guy a quick hug.
“Who is this?” Doug questioned, looking at Rocky. Avery glowed, introducing her boyfriend for umpteenth time.
“Nice to meet you man.” Dougie stuck out his hand, a smirk on his face. “Sorry about my brother, he doesn't know when to shut up sometimes.”
Rocky chuckled, shaking the hand. “It's no problem man. So you play guitar too?” For a few minutes the two musicians started talking about their music and bands.
“I thought you said we needed to go.” Jack said irritatedly through his teeth.
“Yeah we should.” Dougie said goodbye to everybody, but when he came to Sky, his face brightened up a little bit more.
“Good luck Dougie.” Her sweet voice cooed, wrapping her arms around his neck, his arms snaked around her waist. Tony cleared his voice, making sure they knew he was there.
The two quickly jumped apart. And as Dougie and Jack walked away, the taller boy couldn't help but look back to Sky who was smiling like an idiot.
Avery smiled, Rocky stood behind her, giving her a backwards hug, holding her close as the concert started.
~~~
“You guys are amazing!!” Jack yelled into the microphone, sweat running down from his forehead. “And this next song goes out to my new friend Jessie and his girlfriend.” A wicked smirk came on his face as stared into Rocky's eyes.
Jessie is a friend... Jack sang into the microphone as he started a familiar song, everybody started to sing along.
Avery felt Rocky's arms tense up around her. She looked up to him, only to see he was pissed off. “Rock, we can leave if you want to.” She promised.
The boyfriend shook his head, but he did turn to Tony who said something into Rocky's ear. “I'll be back soon.” Avery watched as he walked away, confusion filled her eyes.
A few seconds later Rocky came out on to the stage, a guitar on his hand, strumming along with the band. He had a huge smirk on his face as he walked up to Jack.
"I play along with the charade. There doesn't seem to be a reason to change. You know, I feel so dirty when they start talking cute.I wanna tell her that I love her but the point is probably mute." Rocky sang into the microphone, singing his lines from a previous R5 concert.
When the song went into a guitar solo, Jack and Rocky were face to face, both of them holding a guitar, challenging each other.
Jack did his solo and got a small clap from the crowd, but when Rocky nailed the solo, the Tree House audience went wild. But Avery was the loudest, screaming his name out loud. She could tell that he was happy on the stage.
When the song came to an end, Rocky came up to the microphone, a smile on his face. “Thanks Dougie and Jack for letting me jam out with them. Oh, and Jack, I do have Jessie's girl.” He winked to his girlfriend in the crowd.
“Anytime man.” Dougie praised. “How about one more song?” He begged, despite his brother who was pouting on the corner of the stage.
Rocky sighed. “I wish I could.” He walked over to his new friend and whispered something into his ear. Dougie nodded his head, and walked over to the band to tell them something.
Rocky walked off the stage and back to his girl who had a beaming smile on her face. She threw herself on his, planting a kiss on him. “You did amazing!” Rocky smiled, pulling in for another kiss.
“We're gonna slow things down.” Dougie said into the microphone. “So grab that someone special and hold them close.”
The two brothers started to cover one of Avery's absolute favorite song. Wanted by Hunter Hayes.
“'Cause I wanna wrap you up
Wanna kiss your lips
I wanna make you feel wanted
And I wanna call you mine
Wanna hold your hand forever
Never let you forget it
Yeah, I wanna make you feel wanted.”
Slow music started, Rocky snaked his arms around Avery's waist, pulling her close to him. She wrapped her arms around the back of his neck, resting her head on his chest as they swayed in the music.
